What kind of hardware is this? Silicon motion chipsets are usually
embedded, so I'm having a hard time understanding what multicard
silicon motion would be.

Thanks,

Hi, when we report in bugzilla (bugs.freedesktop.org), the options for
Versions are: "DRI CVS", "unspecified", "XFree86 4.4.0", "XFree86 CVS",
"XOrg 6.7.0" and "XOrg CVS"
I ask to someone to update this with 6.8, 6.9, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4,
7.5 and maybe 7.6 

Thanks,

video talk about hardware vendors and free software

2010-12-10 Thread Hanno Böck 
Hi,

A while ago, I watched a video that was talking about driver development and 
hardware vendors by a guy from Intel. I'm pretty sure it was on some xorg-
conference or somethink alike.

It had a title like "how to make hardware vendors happy" or something similar, 
but I don't remember exactly. It was about the problems that arise when 
hardware vendors want to have free software drivers, one example was the 
mentioning of moving features to a wlan card firmware in order to be able to 
create a driver that complies with state regulation.

Does anyone remember that video and can give me a link?

Only driver knows it. That why user code would need glx extension to
map and provide information about format.
